It competed primarily in NASCAR before being replaced with the Chevrolet Impala, which had been based on the Bel Air. It formed the basis for the Chevrolet El Camino for awhile and came in a Chevrolet Nomad wagon version. The Bel Air was revived in concept form in 2002, but was not returned to production. The Nomad was revived in 1999 in concept form, but was not returned to production. The Nomad name was also used on a wagon concept version of the Chevrolet Corvette, which was also revived in concept form decades later but also not produced.
